I'm developing my first Symfony project and so far pretty good except for the Login since the warning "invalid credentials" started popping up everytime I try to log in and don't really know why because I'm using AbstractLoginFormAuthenticator instead of AbstractFormLoginAuthenticator (the one I see the most), which is driving me a bit crazy because there is not much info.
User entity:
<?php

use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\UserInterface;

Security controller:
<?php
namespace App\Controller;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Http\Authentication\AuthenticationUtils;

public function login(AuthenticationUtils $authenticationUtils): Response

// if ($this->getUser()) {
// return $this->redirectToRoute('target_path');
// }
// get the login error if there is one
$error = $authenticationUtils->getLastAuthenticationError();
// last username entered by the user
$lastUsername = $authenticationUtils->getLastUsername();
return $this->render('security/login.html.twig', ['last_username' => $lastUsername, 'error' => $error]);
}
/**
* @Route("/logout", name="app_logout")
*/
public function logout()
{
throw new \LogicException('This method can be blank - it will be intercepted by the logout key on your firewall.');
}
}
LoginFormAuthenticator:
<?php
namespace App\Security;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\RedirectResponse;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Generator\UrlGeneratorInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Authentication\Token\TokenInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Security;

use Symfony\Component\Security\Http\Authenticator\Passport\Passport;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Http\Authenticator\Passport\PassportInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Http\Util\TargetPathTrait;
class LoginFormAuthenticator extends AbstractLoginFormAuthenticator
{
use TargetPathTrait;
public const LOGIN_ROUTE = 'app_login';
private UrlGeneratorInterface $urlGenerator;
public function __construct(UrlGeneratorInterface $urlGenerator)
{
$this->urlGenerator = $urlGenerator;
}
public function authenticate(Request $request): PassportInterface
{
$email = $request->request->get('email', '');
$request->getSession()->set(Security::LAST_USERNAME, $email);
return new Passport(
new UserBadge($email),
new PasswordCredentials($request->request->get('password', '')),
[

public function onAuthenticationSuccess(Request $request, TokenInterface $token, string $firewallName): ?Response
{
if ($targetPath = $this->getTargetPath($request->getSession(), $firewallName)) {

Create User:
<?php
namespace App\Controller;
use App\Entity\User;
use App\Form\UserTypeUser;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
class NewUserController extends AbstractController
{
#[Route('/newuser', name: 'new_user', methods: ['GET', 'POST'])]
public function index(Request $request): Response
{
$user = new User();
$form = $this->createForm(UserTypeUser::class, $user);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$user->setRoles(['ROLE_USER']);
$entityManager = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$entityManager->persist($user);
$entityManager->flush();
return $this->redirectToRoute('home');
}
return $this->render('new_user/index.html.twig', [
'user' => $user,
'form' => $form->createView(),
]);
}
}
Thanks a lot in advance.
In your NewUserController you need to hash the password before you persist the user.
First you need to inject the service into the controller:
private $passwordHasher;
public function __construct(UserPasswordHasherInterface $passwordHasher)
{
$this->passwordHasher = $passwordHasher;
}
Then in your action you need to add one line inside the if condition:
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$user->setRoles(['ROLE_USER']);
$user->setPassword($this->passwordHasher->hashPassword($user, $user->getPassword());
$entityManager = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$entityManager->persist($user);
$entityManager->flush();
return $this->redirectToRoute('home');
}
This assumes that you already set the password in your form, but it's not properly encoded yet. You can find this in the docs here: https://symfony.com/doc/current/security.html#c-hashing-passwords
Be careful, prior to Symfony 5.3 the password hasher was called password encoder and lived inside the security component. The code is fundamentally the same, but the class looks a bit different. See: https://symfony.com/doc/5.2/security.html#c-encoding-passwords
